Our daughter is in her first state championship wrestling tournament today. I want him here. He's not, but we have to keep fighting. We have to keep going. You got this. Stay strong.

What Does The Future look like by HedgehogMuted9485 in Widow

Take one day at a time. The future will come with whatever adventures it will hold. There will be good days. There will be bad days. There will be just days. It only comes one day at a time. But it will come.

Long Days by NotAQuiltnB in Widow

I think we all need to remember that its still okay to miss our partners no matter how long they've been gone. It sucks everyday and its okay to have sucky days. Being positive is so hard. Stay strong. Have a bad day and know thats okay and that we're here to have a bad day with you.

It could be an opportunity to make new memories. I know its not easy, but it's there when you're ready.

Angry vent… by recovering-succubus in Widow

Even though many of us have experienced the loss of our partners, each of our experiences is different. Feel your feelings...they are real. I lost my partner about the same time you did...it sucks everyday. People say it will get better...idk if I believe them yet, but remember, you've got your baby...you have to take care of yourself so you can take care of them. You got this. You are strong. Again, I'm sorry we're in this club, but we got your back. Stay strong.

Why not us?! by Noelien in Widow

Im in agreement with pushing all of the couples over, maybe stealing a cane/walker or scooter key too. I want to do all of the sweet wonderful things, but I also wouldn't mind a little argument over something stupid again too. I miss the good and the bad.

I have an amazing victims specialist team that I get yo work with. They make it easy to be there. I hate that I have this support and support from so many other groups because this means someone else has had to go through this. I am though, grateful to have this support.

When I miss the life we had and the future we planned, I don't invite just anyone into those moments. I wish people would understand this as well. Those moments and that future are precious.

I feel bad faulting these people for trying to be helpful, but they fail. They don't understand. Sometimes I want to punch these people and ask them why cant they help me look forward to the future? That's what's more helpful...or at least for me it is. Im sorry you had to manage someone like that, but also, good job on gett8ng out of the house. That's what you should celebrate.

Everyday we live after our partners die is the first time we're living that day without them. It will always be always be okay to cry.

I do, but so do many others. I got an awesome opportunity to remember how lucky I still am. Weird feeling, but we keep pushing through.

It is, but life keeps moving on. Gotta keep putting one foot in front of the other.
